A deceptively simple but haunting tale that interweaves mythology with the religions of the world.
—Booklist

One is reminded, while savoring Deborah Grabien’s Plainsong, of C.S. Lewis’ Narnia stories, and of the spiritually landscaped tales of Madeleine L’Engle. Ms. Grabien enters their company effortlessly and with grace. This is a lovely and thought-inspiring book. One hopes that it will be received in the right spirit by theologians, and appreciated by all readers, for the act of imagination that it is.
